It's hard to quit, but it's the perfect marriage!

Zhu Xi unlocked her phone, "After all, this is the first time in my life that someone has praised me for being good at picking stocks."

"Although the first stock I ever bought was a chart showing my own weight trend."

Zhou Yinghuai was dealt another blow.

The noble and abstinent man's face at this moment could split open the East African Grand Canyon.

Zhu Xi clearly had no intention of letting him off easily.

She took a slow sip of her Americano, having deliberately challenged Zhou Yinghuai to see who could endure more hardship, so she made sure her Americano had no sugar or milk.

At this moment, she was so bitter that she slurred her words.

Ironically, Zhou was also drinking, his complexion as calm and composed as ever.

His sword-like eyebrows remained unfurrowed, and his starry eyes were level.

Zhu Xi sighed deeply, feeling that the room was even more cramped than the extra bed in the corridor of the psychiatric ward. "This is also the first time I've been taken to stay in a haunted house."

Zhou Yinghuai: "..."

Today, in the sweltering summer, I had an eye-opening experience; it was the first time I had ever seen Zhou Yinghuai so humiliated.

He only regretted that his eyes didn't have a recording function, so he couldn't capture this wonderful moment.

He was overjoyed, making several "hey hey hey" sounds, so excited that he became somewhat incoherent.

"Congratulations, Dean."

"Congratulations, Dean."

"Congratulations, Dean."

In the sweltering summer heat, he shouted three times in a row, laughing so hard he almost fell over, slapping his thighs and cheering repeatedly.

Zhu Xi raised an eyebrow and said politely, "You all catch up, I'll go back inside and put on some light makeup."

As he stood up, Zhou Yinghuai gently pulled up her wrist.

My fingertips rested against the inside of my wrist, where I could feel a slight pulse.

It bounces slowly, not very fast.

Zhu Xi lowered her eyes, glanced at her wrist, and didn't rush to shake it off.

She was encircled by his well-defined knuckles.

Soon, she slightly raised her eyes again.

A hint of regret could now be seen in those once deep and calm eyes.

Zhu Xi was never a magnanimous person; her vindictive nature varied from person to person.

Just like right now.

Her pink, glossy lips seemed to be coated with poison. "What? Do you have to use such an inescapable method to measure my weight?"

Zhou Yinghuai immediately stopped.

Zhu Xi clicked her tongue, grinned smugly, and walked away.

Only after her haughty gait had completely disappeared from sight in the sweltering summer heat did he burst into unrestrained laughter and forcefully pat Zhou Yinghuai's shoulder.

"Ah Huai, it's been thirty years, and this is the first time I've seen such a hideous look on your face, like you've eaten shit."

"By the way, back in the third year of junior high, you snatched the bone that Lingyi liked from the dog's mouth and were chased by a wolfhound for three blocks, but you weren't as ferocious as you are today."

Zhou Yinghuai's eyes were deep and he ignored the noise around him.

With a light touch of her fingertips, she seemed to be reminiscing about something.

However, not long after, a faint smile appeared in his deep eyes.

That weight trend chart is indeed very attractive.

I've gained a few pounds, which is just right.

Inside the bedroom, Zhu Xi stood before the mirror, applying makeup to her reflection.

The phone next to him was on speakerphone, and Hoshi's laughter soared to the ceiling, reaching the heavens.

"Mrs. Zhou," she said sarcastically, "I heard you're quite the big shot in Libei."

Zhu Xi snorted, looked her head up and down, and exclaimed, "Wow!"

Hoshi: "I wasn't praising you."

Zhu Xi added two strokes to the right end of her eyebrow and said in a coquettish voice, "How can I be so beautiful! Full-figured, slim-waisted, plump, and long-legged."

Hoshi: "Don't stop me from drawing my sword!"

Zhu Xi's mocking smile was still lingering when he heard the second half of Huo Xi's sentence.

"If you stop me from drawing my sword, I'll poison you with arsenic!"

When best friends chat, they always talk about this and that, going about whatever comes to mind.

Sure enough, Zhu Xi just picked out a hawthorn-colored lipstick, and Huo Xi dropped another bombshell.

"Baby, do you know your Huaihuai's secret?"
